Won a novice at Kempton in February. Respectable handicap debut when fifth of 11 at Newbury 16 days ago on return from 4 months off, leading until 2f out but lack of a recent outing counting against her late on. Fitter now and can improve, with the possibility of an easy lead on the cards, too.

Went close on all-weather at Lingfield in January but produced a tame effort back on turf when going without cheekpieces at Leicester on return from 5 months off in June. Cheekpieces now reapplied but form on this surface is patchy and he looks best opposed.

Good efforts at this trip the last twice, including when second of 10 at Leicester 35 days ago, giving best only to a thriving sort. Now has the assistance of a good-value claimer and looks sure to go well.

9/2
Finally broke his duck when teaming up to good effect with this claimer in a handicap over C&D 14 days ago, capitalising on a drop in grade. 3 lb rise for that shouldn't prove prohibitive, but he's not always looked straightforward and isn't sure to be in the same mood.

Largely run over hurdles for this yard and virtually refused to race returned to the Flat last time so has plenty to prove back down in trip and with regular tongue strap removed.

Lightly-raced type who showed improved form back up to this trip when runner-up at Lingfield in a field of 5 on handicap debut 21 days ago. Respected given his unexposed profile but will need another step forward here.

Forecasts

Ablon (11/8), Everyoneknowsadave (9/4), Didaar (9/2), Revelio (13/2), Woodstock City (14/1), Caelan (33/1)

Verdict

ABLON should strip fitter for her recent outing and she could have more to offer from this mark, while the prominent tactics she's used the last twice will likely show her to good effect around here. She's preferred to the more exposed Everyoneknowsadave, who has been shaping well, and the quirky Didaar.
